Offering Online & In-Person (Queens & Manhattan) Personal Training & Yoga
**Please note, I offer an at home or park workout service. If you are looking to train in a gym, it’s best to contact them directly as most do not allow independent trainers to use their facilities with clients **
Christine plans her workouts for clients specific to their goals & stays on top of industry trends to keep exercises fresh. With her level of experience, she can easily work around injuries & help prevent them by making sure her clients perform exercises correctly.
This job is truly rewarding when she sees the quality of life improve for her clients. Maybe they can run their first 5k, reduce low back pain, play with their grand kids without losing their breath or fit back into their skinny jeans. Making people feel good about themselves through fitness is what she truly lives for:)

I have trained with Christine for over 8 years now. During that time, we've worked through various (fortunately minor) injuries, weight fluctuations, and medical concerns. She has always been responsive to my changing needs, and is excellent at thinking on the fly - which she has had to do because I'm not great about telling her about alterations I need beforehand (sorry Christine!). I can' recommend her enough.

I would give Christine 10 out of 5 because 5 stars doesn't do her justice. I have been training with Christine for 8 months now after my first trainer at the gym quit. Now, I thought my first trainer was decent but since I have been training with Christine I realized what a good personaltraining is. The key word here is personal as Christine always has a targeted challenging plan for me that still adapts to my physical limitations; and the interesting part is every week is different. She is very skilled, knowledgable, and more importantly passionate about her work and her clients and you can tell with the little things she does; I never got a "pro-perspiration" t-shirt from anyone before I had her as a trainer!
You won't go wrong with Christine; She will help you meet your goals whatever they may be AND you are guaranteed to enjoy your time and want more of the "torture"!

Christine is a great personaltrainer. She's very careful to really understand your goals and objectives and then creates a program tailored to help you to achieve them.
In my case, I have some injuries that I need to be careful about. So, she's ever mindful about my specific situation.
I started training with Christine about 8 months ago when I was preparing for a National Championship Sports Car Club of America racing event. Without a doubt, Christine's help in getting me into the best possible physical condition paid dividends for me in the race. After a decade layoff from racing, I finished third in the race and was really happy.
I have continued working out with Christine because she makes it fun and I see the results. Thanks, Christine!

I have been training with Christine for over a year now. I'm stronger, leaner and more energetic!
Immediately in my first session, I felt very comfortable working with her. She puts a lot into every session by really listening and understanding my goals and pushing me to reach them. She has a new set of workout for you every session, very appropriate and effective for your unique needs and goals and most importantly, very enjoyable! She takes notes on her clients so that she can keep each session interesting and challenging. She is very knowledgable about nutrition as well and has always provided me with so many nutritional options that were new to me. She has taught me many exercises that I can take with me when I travel. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone!

I have always had this passion & enjoyed the feeling you get when you help someone. My entire life I always found myself active through sports or working out to look & feel good. About 10 years after graduating college I decided to combine these 2 things & pursue something that I am passionate about.
